Hi guys,
Yesterday we had another very nice MP Session. Unfortunately I wasn't aware what we will cross enroute.
But later more.
First I will start with the map of the flight. I had edited the route slightly, but in general we followed Pär's flightplan.

Then it was time to depart and so I taxied to RWY 10 for takeoff - but not before Dave got out of the way...
[attachment=4401]
Short time after departure we were crossing Fearn (EG0C).
[attachment=4402]
Somewhere below there should be another airfield coded 6BKB. Maybe I need FSX and add-on scenery to let it appear.

A About 6 minutes later we reached Inverness (EGPE) and I performed a touch and go here. Dave is close behind me.

Next on the list was Kinloss AB (EGQK).

[attachment=4407]
Dave on very short final...

And just around the corner there is RAF Lossiemouth.

[attachment=4410]
Heading for Insch now...
[attachment=4411]
Passing Aberdeen VOR.

After performing the touch and go at Aberdeen Dyce Airport.

Aberdeen city.

then we had to fly a little bit cross country to get to the western side of Scotland, flying over the Scottish Highlands. Not i know why they are called Highlands. There are some very high lands.

Some time later I decided to climb higher as the pictures before were taken at some lower parts of the Highlands. And only good luck prevented me from crashing into one of the hills
[attachment=4418]
As I mentioned earlier we would cross something what Scotland is best known for: Loch Ness. Unfortunately I wasn't aware of that and so it happened that I didn't take a picture
Crossing Plockton (UK10).
[attachment=4419]
Dave was still following me.
[attachment=4420]
Next we approached a waypoint that was called LIGHTHOUSE in the flightplan. So I think at the tip next to my left wing there must be a Lighthouse somewhere...
[attachment=4421]
[attachment=4422]
Approaching to Benbecula (EGPL).
[attachment=4423]
Dave is trying some different technique for landing
[attachment=4424]
Then we crossed some other airfields enroute, which are all placed in water according to my scenery, so I decided to not take any pictures. So it happened that we reached Colonsay (X6CY) without further 'delay'.
And again I had to create Colonsay for FS9 again so I could land here.
[attachment=4425]
For some reasons the hammerheads are not displayer here, but I did create them. Maybe they are overwritten by the sand background, although I created it as first...
Nevertheless here we are.
[attachment=4426]
I will not comment this picture.
[attachment=4427]
Dave parked close to me.

Maybe next weekend we will fly to airfields which are more suitable for C-17's.
Hope you enjoyed the report.
